Yirgacheffe Malt – Australian Brewery Announces Coffee Malt

Australian brewery Matilda Bay has just announced the release of their limited edition seasonal lager, Long Shot, which is brewed using Ethiopian Yirgacheffe beans.

The Shout website notes “The idea was born over a beer between Matilda Bay head brewer, Scott Vincent, and gourmet coffee roaster, Toby Smith, after comparing stories about roasting malt and coffee beans”.
